The Senate education committee is meeting Tuesday to vote on President Donald Trump's nominee for education secretary, Betsy DeVos, a billionaire school choice advocate, best known for her work chairing the American Federation for Children.

As a Senate committee nears a vote on Betsy DeVos's nomination as U.S. secretary of education, several Democrats on the panel continue to press concerns about the nominee's financial disclosure and ethics agreement.

"I believe that all students, including individuals with disabilities, deserve an equal opportunity to lead full, productive and successful lives," DeVos wrote in her Jan. 24 letter to Sen. Johnny Isakson, R-Ga.

Democrats want more time to question the education secretary nominee about her investments and say they weren't given enough time to question her about various issues during her Jan. 17 confirmation hearing.

During her Senate confirmation hearing, the nominee for education secretary denied association with the Edgar and Elsa Prince Foundation, which has donated to groups critical of the LGBTQ rights movement.

Keep an eye on moderate Republicans, and possible Democratic presidential contenders, as the Senate education committee grills the nominee for education secretary on school choice, college access, and more.

Democrats are hoping to delay a confirmation hearing for President-elect Donald Trump's pick for education secretary, Betsy DeVos, until her paperwork has been cleared by the congressional Office of Government Ethics.
